Block dispute with Tawker & Pgk

This is the user who blocked me despite an explicit statement that I have nothing to do with the other "Can't sleep" user. I am requesting an investigation as to whether this user was acting in good faith or if he was asked to block me. Should another user justify this, I am will to request a rename to keep my edit count. before you block me 06:30, 14 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]

from WP:USERNAME - "Fairly or unfairly, the line between acceptable and unacceptable user names is drawn by those who find the username inappropriate, not by the creator of the name.". You can request a rename without the account needing to be unblocked. --pgk^(talk) 06:35, 14 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Your username (YankeeFan2006) has been blocked indefinitely because it is either inappropriate or too similar to an existing username (see our blocking policy for more information). You are encouraged to create a new account and contribute to Wikipedia under a more appropriate username, and in a constructive manner. See Wikipedia:Username for guidance on selecting an appropriate username. You may also edit Wikipedia without creating an account. You are not allowed to edit Wikipedia under an inappropriate username. If you would like to discuss the block, you may edit your talk page or email the administrator who blocked you.

Due to Wikipedia's mechanism for enforcing name changes, your IP address may be temporarily blocked. Unless you have also been engaging in vandalism or impersonation of another user, we will remove that block as soon as possible — if this doesn't happen within an hour or so, please email an administrator and explain the situation (see the list of administrators).

If you want to keep the contributions from your old account for your new one, please add the following to your user talk page: {{Username change request|new username}} (or {{ucr|new username}} for short). This is possible because even when you are blocked, you can still edit your own talk page. Note that this can only be done before you create the new one. If you wish to change to a new username, please visit Wikipedia:Changing username for information. In many cases (especially if your account has few or no edits), it is a lot easier to simply create a new account.

You can doubt and want all you like. I am quite capable of unblocking, but I have reviewed and agree with the blocking admin. Do not read yourself to the category. --pgk^(talk) 07:15, 14 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]

That's your opinion and you're entitled to it. I'm not forcing you to unblock, but that doesn't mean your should be stingy and interfere with my request. If maybe a few other users say it's forbidden then you have a point.

I'm sorry I have to do this, but you leave me no choice but to post this on WP:RFC. We will then see if blocking my name because I used the "Can't sleep" prefix is legitimate. before you block me 08:11, 14 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Whether or not other users fulfill my request, I will still continue to edit. My user name isn't too similar to the other "Can't sleep" user and he doesn't even own the prefix.

Well that is just one reason your username could be considered inappropriate, the other if you had read the username policy I listed above is "Inflammatory usernames", I would consider your username to be needlessly divisive. No need to apologise about taking something to RFC. --pgk^(talk) 16:27, 14 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Log of recent edits

In the spirit of WP:BOLD, I will continue editing dispite this block because I feel it is ridiculious. I will post them here so that they know I am actually doing the edits.

EddieSegoura

Hello,

I strongly suspect you are a reincarnation of banned User:EddieSegoura. He had a lot of interest in the Yankees, the Power Pangers, and hurricanes too. He also took a great interest in our RfA processes. And he was known to often edit from AOL, as you have been doing. —Bunchofgrapes (talk) 15:09, 14 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Who is this anyway? Go Yanks! 18:40, 14 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Oh, yeah, I almost forget: Eddie had an old Sockpuppet named User:Lets Go Yankees. Go figure. —Bunchofgrapes (talk) 18:54, 14 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]

so what do you need from me? a lot of people are interested in the Yankees, Rangers, and other things. I think you're better off telling me who this Eddie is, because you sound as if your upset at him. Go Yanks! 18:57, 14 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Yes, but your writing style is very similar to Eddie's. —Viriditas | Talk 03:52, 15 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Okay, has he done anything to you? Go Yanks! 18:59, 15 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Name change

Because this account was block for a bad username, I am changing to a new username. Talk page will be moved. Go Yanks! 18:59, 15 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]
